5.2 miles slow, 4.8 miles tempo

Went out in the morning with Natasha for our usual loop of Hyndland Road and Charing Cross, extended by running a loop of Partickhill Road and Turnberry Road. Wore the new Piranhas with thick socks. 5.16 miles in 43:09, average pace 8:21/mile, HR 120.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 8:11 (117), 8:07 (123), 8:26 (116), 8:22 (120), 8:39 (122), 8:34 (118)
HR zones: 43.2%, 56.8%, 0%, 0%, 0%

In the afternoon I ran a loop of Grovepark Street, Garrioch Road, Winton Drive, Beaconsfield Road and Napiershall Street. Wore the Hyperspeed 4. It felt like hard work along Great Western Road until I crossed Kirklee Road and was suddenly able to pick up the pace. 4.83 miles in 31:05, average pace 6:26/mile, HR 147.

Pace splits (ave. HR): 7:16 (129), 6:36 (141), 6:37 (148), 5:56 (158), 5:40 (166)
HR zones: 4.9%, 21.7%, 47.3%, 26.5%, 0%
